[QUOTE="Stormonu, post: 5752339, member: 52734"] While that is game and DM dependent, there is mythic basis for werecreatures not regenerating lost limbs. I know of a oriental tale about a hunter who went into the woods to slay a rogue tiger that had been hunting and killing local townsfolk. His wife protested that it was too dangerous, but he would not be swayed. Once deep in the woods, he was ambushed by the tiger, who had laid a clever trap for him. He managed to fend the tiger off, lopping off one of its paws in the process. He wrapped the bloody paw in a placed it in his hunting satchel and returned home. Once home, he was excited to relate the tale to his wife. At its end, he produced the bloody bundle from his satchel and unwrapped it. To his horror, instead of a tiger paw was the delicate hand of a woman. Worse still, on it's ring finger it bore the jade ring the hunter had given his wife. Needless to say, the hunter found that his wife had attempted to hide the mangled stump of her wrist with a badly bleeding bandage. It was she who was the weretiger and had been preying upon the townsfolk! [/QUOTE]
